It's awarded on a match by match basis. We're looking at a 70:30 split at the moment. As it stands the $5000 budget a month will support 10 Clan Wars at $500 a piece.

Would other teams be able to join?

Where are the VODs going to be posted, MLG's or your YouTube channel? (Or both/neither..?)

I was really hoping you would say "though a potato gun", but I will accept this $500 a match thing.

How will the Vods be distributed? I doubt I will be able to catch the live shows.

To summarise half of this thread

For a while now it's seemed that TB is doing more to keep the SC2 scene interesting and relevant than most other people out there. Just want you to know it's appreciated mate.
I love reading your sometimes sharp answers to silly questions or statements on TL too - hilarious.

I feel like TB does more to save this damn game than Blizzard itself sometimes :')
|
Wow.. finally someone who has the balls to try something new!
|
And wow.. This is so fucking awesome man please load it up on YouTube and not only Twitch, Total!

"I didn't read the website and will post a question the website answered" There is a website o0?
Anyway, how about ClanCraft? ShoutClan sounds kind of strange, I liked that one better.

Can't have ClanCraft, because it sounds too much like LANCraft, which will result in people remembering that there is no LAN, and Blizzard doesn't want that.

Sounds awesome! But almost all of these maps kind of feel like they would never work in SC2 : /
Hope some mapmaker ports this to BW though because the concepts are amazing (Of course the lava wouldn't work and most of these maps already have their roots in BW, but still)
Also one of the maps was inspired by Iron Curtain? An SSL map made for SSL8 , but never played because it was determined to be completely broken even in BW.
Seriously though I still love it, this might be the first event that I'll actually follow since last Shoutcraft.

That is exactly what the scene needs. TB, you have figured out everything perfectly and you deserve a big applause, man!

To be fair the $5,000 a month prize pool thing seemed a bit ambiguous.
Just a small detail. You are doing amazing things for eSports.

I can't imagine many players or teams will want to spend time practicing those. The page indicates that we will be using at most 1 of those maps per series. It's also worth noting that many teams have players that literally have nothing else to practice for after being eliminated from WCS, so it's more likely those players will be willing to spend some time with Starbow or SC2BW. Plenty of teams have players that are already playing this maps for fun anyway. I'm worried that some of these maps will only be played in SB and SC2BW because the players will completely avoid playing SC2 on some of these maps because of map concepts.
Also both SC2BW still has so many kinks (when playing in BW mode- More than 12 units selected before deselection, MBS, etc) Can I suggest playing in SC2 settings to avoid these problems?
